Year 7 feeling festive

15 December 2017

Over the last fortnight, Year 7 have been channelling the festive spirit. During Monday lunchtime they were invited into the library to make Christmas cards. The sound of Bing
Crosby filled the air (as did the smell of chocolate) as they set to work on their designs. The glitter and snow shakers proved a popular (albeit messy!) decorative choice.
Cards were written and bundled away into bags to be ‘gifted’ at a later date!

On Wednesday, the year group set out to see Sir Peter Wright’s production of ‘The Nutcracker’ at Birmingham Hippodrome. The girls have been studying ‘The Nutcracker’ in
Performing Arts and it was fantastic to watch their faces light up and hear their gasps of excitement as they watched the ballet come to life in front of their eyes!

Our Christmas activities have been a brilliant complement to the festive season so far.

Edgbaston High School is easy to reach by public transport. Alternatively, areas including Solihull, Walsall, Four Oaks, Sutton Coldfield, Streetly, Kinver, Stourbridge, Hagley and Halesowen are covered by the School's own minibus services or by private coaches organised by parents.
